Areca palm division propagation and precautions

Propagation of Areca palm by division

There are two methods of propagation of Areca palm: division propagation and sowing propagation. Generally, potted Areca palms are propagated by division. Propagation by division can be carried out all year round. When a Areca palm plant is growing well and has grown many roots, we can carry out division. We dig the Areca palm out of the soil with its roots intact, and then divide it at the base. Each plant should not be too small. After the division is completed, it can be planted.

Precautions for the division and propagation of Areca palm

First of all, after cutting the Areca palm, we must pay attention to the treatment of the cut wound. We can apply wood ash or sulfur powder on the cut wound. This can play a disinfecting role and prevent the wound from infection and rot. Second, the Areca palm that has just been divided is very weak. We cannot place it under strong light for a long time immediately after planting it, as this will cause the Areca palm plants to be weak and grow slowly. Third, after division, the Areca palm plants need to be watered appropriately. You can wipe the leaves of the Areca palm with water every day to keep the leaves moist. Spray water frequently to maintain a certain air humidity, which is conducive to the recovery of the Areca palm. Fourth, in order to restore the growth ability of the Areca palm as soon as possible, we should place the Areca palm after division in a warmer environment. The temperature of the growth environment should be kept between 20°C and 25°C.
